Brief Answer:
The cause needs to be found first.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Tingling in fingers may be related to neurological conditions such as cervical cord compression, peripheral neuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, low vitamin B12, etc.

So, prior to treatment, the correct cause should be found.

For this purpose is necessary to get evaluated by a Neurologist and after that by tests such nerve conduction study, MRI of the cervical spine and blood tests for vitamin B12 levels.

Discuss with your Doctor about these issues.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
